Forums exist and evolve to serve a number of purposes.

Some forums are simply a repository of free information, that anyone can wander in and take take take.

that is not what you will find here.

what you will find here is a close knit community, where the tricks of the trade and really useful advice are often shared by PM or offline via IM.

this is not some clandescent club, it's called good old "networking". The old fashioned way, where you bring stuff to the party, you build up trust and people share with you.

it's not a too uncommon concept.

but like so many that have tried with their first post being "who can tell me when IDN's drop?" or "who knows what zone files are available" you will be met with a frosty silence.

but show up, put in the effort, share what you can from your expereinces - and contribute, and in time you will be rewarded.

i can't put it any simpler than that.

you could always show willing by signing up as a "Premium" membership.

or you could just read from post #1 through to god knows how many and piece together the huge jigsaw puzzle of info

Language and people are two different thing.

The people here are generally quite international, they live or used to work in different countries, so people here are very sensitive to this kind of talking. Even a hint is not acceptable.

You can be sensitive all you want. But get this: I don't like to be called names for nothing. So, here is a warning- t g t b t u 2 is my official business name; I was granted by the State of New York the authority to do business as "t g t b t u 2 " as "assumed name" (this is a form of legal entity in US). So, next time somebody call me something (like "t g t b t u 2 is ....") , make sure it's not defamatory-or, if you live in US, you may be legally liable and don't think you can hide behind a nic.
If some have doubts as to what is defamatory and what is not in US, try to google it. If you never been through litigation (I have), I can assure you, it may be very costly.

Moderators, take note- this is a public notice and I will take a screenshot of this .
I call upon all to be civic and not assume that some are more equal than others.

Yes, it's OK. I don't care what you think. I am only interested in your money, especially if you live in US.

Alphamale,

Agree with your comments and this is a very good forum...

(I guess I was just shocked, when someone got shot down for asking the meaning of some IDNs, but I understand a little more now ... and really feel this is all history that we should now put behind ourselves... so lets all move onwards and upwards).

I also agree it is important to contribute where we all can and this is why I am now taking the time and try to answer any questions in full, where-ever I think I may be able to assist others in some way.
I hope my posts have been useful to someone - if not then please let me know, as I am not wanting to just rave on (although I am starting to in this particular post - smile).

I also appreciate your comments here and agree people in the forum can be very helpful - and are also very knowledgeable in the IDN & SEO areas (and I am sure many more which I am yet to discover).

Personally I find that a very well run forum like this, is very refreshing... and it is unique in the calibre of IDN people who are in here.

I will check out the premium membership (thanks for the hint) - somehow I missed that there even was more than one level of membership (so thanks for pointing this out for me... I am off to hunt info on that now - cheers... )


Tgtbtu2,

Let's move on from here - I think the point has now been made by all in this post... and really we are all ultimately here to gain experience and gain friends where we can (as obviously we share a common interest in even showing up here).

My earlier post was in support of what I saw was a fair question for someone to ask (namely the meaning of some IDN names) - so please understand that I thought that your question was a legitimate one to ask.

I really did try do my best to answer your questions in the three posts you raised on the meaning of your new Chinese IDNs (and I did follow-up, when you rightly questioned my first answer on one of them).
I am also very glad you did, as it enabled me to look more closely at that particular term / word, which was new to me and a couple of other Chinese native speakers who I also passed it by on your behalf as well... so all is good, as I also learned something new myself - great!).

I hope my comments were some use to you (and that you have found the answers you were looking for in regards to the meaning of the Chinese IDNs you registered)?
Please do let me know if you think I was unclear or if you think I can still help more with explanation on the meanings of your new IDNs in some way - ok?)

Thanks all and cheers once again, Andrew

It was a legitimate quistion to ask- you are the only one who decides what is fair and what is not-listen to your gut and always do a right thing! And don't listen to anybody.
I am very gratefull that you helped me; I feel obliged to you and hope to pay you back in kind someday.

tgtbtu2,

Thanks for your reply... I am glad that I did manage to answer your question.

I also hope those IDNs work well for you, cheers, Asiaplay.

All those above are wrong reasons. If memebrs are not going to help each other-within reason-then this is not a place to be. It will simply have no credibility and all that our "senior members" (and junior ones too)would be saying, would be just perceived as marketing, self-promotion and, sometimes even misleading crap.
Do you want to be in a place like that?

You are free to leave at any time you wish .. nobody will beg you to stay

I doubt you will get any help or information on this or any forum with your attitude.
To be honest I wouldn't even sell a domain to you. You will find most of the long term members here are more than willing to help people out or offer advice but you ... well I wouldn't expect too much help ...

In fact, rather than possibly have to deal with you and your 'lawyers' in the future I would delete your account here if I was the forum owner

Chill out, Citizen... I never asked you (and I will never ask you) to sell anything to me. I don't buy on aftermarket.

Well, well.
